Bandit XXR helmet?

I saw this helmet in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" (american version) worn by Lisbeth Salander or Rooney Mara, and i fell in love with it. The Bandit (or Alien i think) XXR looks completely badass and is DOT certified and also certified in Germany (which i've heard is impressive because they have some pretty tight rules there). Here's the link to their only american dealer (i'm pretty sure): http://www.alienhelmets.com/Alien-XXR-Original.htm

I want to know, has anyone tried out this helmet? Is it good? What are other people's thoughts on it? I know it's a pretty rare helmet so i doubt anyone will know for sure, but hey, no harm in asking right?

Oh, and what is everyone's stance on buying helmets online?

(p.s. i'm new to the forum and this is my first post so sorry if i'm all over the place haha)

That helmet is a copy of the Simpson RX. Actually half their helmets are Simpson copies. There's another brand call Craft that specializes in copying Simpsons but at a much lower price. Can't tell you about the quality of the XXR but one thing is that the eye port is shallow and narrow and not optimum for street riding since the design is based on a car racing helmet.

Funny because I have a friend who is a petite girl who wore an RX on her Honda CB360 long before the movie was released.
